No, you cannot purchase miles (and if people are offering to sell you points, it's a violation of the Velocity terms as well as AFF, as they would be doing a 'family transfer' and charging you).

You can look at say a NAB Credit card which has a 20,000 sign up bonus at present (see here: Credit card affiliate - NAB Velocity Rewards Premium - NAB)

If you have a partner/spouse who is eligible, you could pool points to get up to 40,000 (if you both get the card that is) and of course, any other family members could transfer you points.

The only legal possibility to buy, which is expensive and would still leave you 25,000 points short, I think is:

- buy 20,000 SPG points which you can then convert to 25,000 Velocity points - although you need an SPG account which has been opened for more than 14 days - https://buy.points.com/PointsPartne...roduct=BUY&CAMPAIGNCODE=SWSideNav&c=SWSideNav - cost is USD $700!
